Why use ALFSBO.com?
1. Less hassle and frustration
You control when your home is shown. You schedule prospective buyers to view your home so you can prepare accordingly. When a buyer makes an offer, there is no back and forth telephone tag between agents to reach an agreement- it can be resolved in minutes.
2. You can sell your home better than anyone
You know all the details about the property, especially school and neighborhood information. A well maintained, fairly priced home, virtually sells itself: your role is to simply provide additional information.
3. You are in control
You can advertise where and how you want, schedule showings when it is convenient for you, talk directly with prospective buyers and even take your home off the market for a while. You are not obligated to a 3, 6 or 12 month contract.
4. More money in your pocket
Obviously, this is the main reason that most homeowners are selling their home exclusively. You can save commissions up to 7% to sell it yourself. On a $200,000 home - 7% commission is $14,000. Sell it yourself and that 7% is a solid part of your equity.
5. You can sell faster
If you list your home with a full commission agent, the asking price of your home will be higher to cover the commissions. You will usually end up reducing the price over time, which is the price asking price if you were sell by owner. Do it right the first time and avoid taking a loss.
6. Less uncertainty
Because you meet the prospective buyers, you have a much better idea of the interest in your home, what they like about your home, how serious they are about buying your home, why you have not had an offer and the buyer's purchasing timeframe. The direct feedback is priceless in selling.
7. It's so easy
"If you can sell your own car, you can sell your own home... it's that simple;" stated one of our home sellers. He is so right! |
